LAsHED TO THE RIGGING.
Proc Positive OF Farragut's Position
In Passing h Mobile Bay Forts.

Proof Positive OF FarraguI'n Position
in Passing the Mobile Bay Forts.
New York, May 80 The Tribune this
morning publishes articles which it
thinks conclusively settles doubts ss to
whether Admiral Farragut has dashed
to the rigging in the Mobile bay fight.
1t shows that Farragut was first dashed
to the port main rigging for o short time
and afterward, during another phase OF
the combat, was secured to the port
mi2zen rigging. The first flashing is
proved by Qaartermaster Knowles, who
passed the rope around the admiral.
The second lashIng is proved by the
testimony of Captain Watson, who se-
cured the admiral in this instance and
finally, an extract from a letter written
by Fnrragut and his wife now pub
lished for the first time, proves the best
possible witness. Farragut himself says
that he was twice dashed to the rigging,
Yesterday a reporter called to see Loyal
Farragut, son of Admiral Farragut about
the latest story ~dlscrediting the incident
depicted In Pages picture. Farrsgut
was no at first disposed to consider
seriously the latest attempts to discredit
the incidents depicted in Pages piture
and recorded by various historians and
writers. Periodically" he said "like
measles or whooping cough, there is in
flcted upon the cGantty 9 new version
of this incident at the passage of she
forts in Mobile bay" He knew that
Page was painting the picture. "Page
used to cherish the piece of rope which
my father used In illustrating how he was
fastened to the rigging. OF course my
father would never have done anything
Of the sort, or assumed that position, if
the incident were fictitious. Father never
took any exception to the attitude in
which he Was depicted or to the rope
laehing.. 1t may be said that one thing
Is lacking to make the evidence totally
unassailabIe, and that Is the admiral's
OWL evidence. / have found among my
mothers papers q portion of a letter
from the admiral in which he all1des to
the incident briefly, but in such q fash
ion that no room is left for any misun-
~derstanding as to his meaning. This is
what he wrote my mother about the in
cident:
Il told you that Watson dashed me to
the shroud; 30 he did. This was in a
part of the mizzen rigging. Drayton
sent q quartermaster to secure me. /
Was SO much interested in what was
going on around that I did it meehani.
cally.'
This letter was written on September
25th. 1864. / have no reason therefore to
make any change at all in what I said
about the incident, in the life I wrote o.
my father. These statements were con-
firmed by Captain j. o. Watson now
staying with Farragut, AND a letter
signed by the quartermaster Of the Hart
ford, and james Smith, captain of the
Hartford's mizzen top.

Key West he heard OF the death of his

tits a fact that Secretary Lamar would

cy. He is not, of course, In any sense q
candidate. The duties OF the interior
have never been entirely to the taste of
Mr.. Lamar, and which BIT has been much
more successful as an executive officer
than many of his friends supposed, he
would undoubtedly Welcome a position
where he could devote himself to legal
researches. where his time would not be
SO much occupied with matters of no in
terest to him. Besides. the commissions
of the Justice of the United States SUI
preme court are for life or good Behavior
with the right to retire on fail pay after

posistion would have many attractions
for q man of the tastes of MIR. Lamar. I
believe there is some prospect that he
will be appointed.
